First off, why is this so overrated on Netflix?? It was a frustrating experience. While the idea could've been unique had it been executed properly, it was more disappointing and confusing than anything. Also, let's put things in perspective, how is she the number 1, best selling novelist?? Wouldn't everyone know about her if she was? Including the nanny that came over who had no idea who she was (mind you, the young nanny reads novels for fun and they bonded over that) it's a bit of a stretch to make her that successful and renowned, and then we never get to see her write until halfway through the movie. I'm surprised this film has Dermot Mulroney!
The villain's goals are unclear and unmotivated and nonsensical. This couldve been a good psychological thriller but it was just lost about what story it was trying to tell. Also, the bits that were used as foreshadowing pieces we see in the beginning of the movie don't pay off or work later. The fantasy wasnt really fantasy like since it just made no sense (even for fantasy) and in the end, everything is blamed on mental illnesses, of course. But that also means both of them were crazy? The ending was one of those confusing endings were nothing is explained merely because the writer/director doesn't have a clear vision either and just wants you to wonder what the answer could be. I don't recommend this.
